She woke up from the noise that was coming from outside. Her purple coloured hair were dishevelled. She took a moment to analyse her surroundings when the e door opened and a slender man came in. It was her instructor; Kabuto. 

"Why the heck you're still in your bed ? Go and start the training!" He scolded. He gave her a glare and went outside. 

She took a breather, quickly changed into training suit and went outside. After reaching her destined training room, she realised where the noise was coming from. Kibayama, their main instructor, was continuously shouting.

"Everyone has to do their best or else you what you'll get!". He turned to her, " Especially you, Kageno Hikaru!"

"Yes..", she nodded weakly and went to start her training.


Hikaru's POV

I was training harder and harder but still wasn't able to release my keshin. I always got scolded for this, the only reason that I'm surviving in this horrible place it's because everyone think I have some kind of Special Power. Well, I swear if I'd have such power I'd crush them all into pieces. 

I've been training in this hell for God knows how long. My memories from the childhood have almost faded. The name and this necklace that I have, are the only thing that reminds me that I'm still someone. 

I fell on my knees after the ball stroke me for the 29th time, then Kabuto, who was shooting the soccer ball at me yelled, "You're nearly useless to the fifth sector and to the holy emperor!" 

He then proceeded to kick on my stomach, I was already in pain and couldn't take no more. I wanted to die at that moment, the only way to get out of this hell.

"Get outta here, you scum!" he was going to kick me again when a voice stopped him in his track.

"What are you doing ?"


Ishido's POV

I was going for a tour in God Eden. I knew that all the seeds and the strongest players of fifth sector were all once trained here. I smirked when I saw Kibayama greeting me. He showed me different places where kids of all ages were kept and were bound to train. They all were going through really harsh training but I decided to ignore them.

"Seitei sama, this is the place where our strongest players are trained", Kibayama showed me a big hall divided into sections for the difficulty levels. A huge window was plastered on the wall  to monitor the kids. In the beginner section, there was only one kid. I saw there the kid getting kicked by the instructor . I felt something strange, something I used to feel a long time ago. Now forgotten. Now a days I don't usually feel awful by seeing someone treated like this but I couldn't stand this kid being kicked like this.

 "What are you doing?" he stopped at my asking, his eyes filled with fear. He asked, "S-sir? Can I- I do something for you?

"Apologise!"

Kibayama noticed this and approached me, "They will apologise Seitei sama", he then turned on the speaker and ordered,  "Everyone at once , bow to our great Seitei and apologise!!"

Everyone including that kid, bowed and apologised to me. I felt agitated, "I wasn't asking for their apologies, Kibayama" 

"W-what sir?" Kibayama got confused as he was positive that the kids were responsible for my anger, "Who has disgraced you, Seitei sama?"

 "Him",  I pointed at that person by giving him a deathly glare

"Him?" Kibayama didn't give a second thought at to what he might have done to offend me but, "What are you waiting for Kabuto? Apologise at once!!"

"I'm so sorry Seitei sama, please forgive me" , he fell on all four and begged. I looked away from him being disgusted..

Hikaru's POV

Seitei sama smiled at me and walked away with Kibayama san following him out with many guards. During  the break time, Shuu came to me, "you alright ? "

I was covered with bruises all over the body but still I nodded and bit the sandwich. This was the lunch we get from here; a sandwich and a glass of milk.

 "Seitei seemed interested in you", he said casually while gulping his own sandwich.

 "W-what?" I was shocked, "Why would seitei sama be-?"

 "Of course! why would seitei sama be interested in a weakling like her!" I was interrupted by a rude Hakuryuu. I knew I was thinking the same but he didn't need to say it out loud, especially the last part! A weakling?

 I was going to give him a piece of my mind but when shuu decided to reply on my behalf, "You cannot offend anyone like this, remember she's also one of us"

 "She's just an old treasure box filled with no loot inside!" 

"Shut up!" I finally managed to say. 

"Humph!" hakuryuu pouted and  walked away, out of our sight.

 "Thank you shuu kun"

 "you're always welcome 😊"

In this jungle of monstrosity, where everyone is ready to tear each other apart, Shuu was the light that saves me. I'm glad to have someone as kind as him, looking out for me.


Few months later

Shuu and others have been already sent to another compartment whereas Hikaru was the only one training alone. The kabuto-guy kicked her again and again. After his humiliation in front of Seitei, he despised the dark haired girl even more. 

"Do you even want to survive brat?!" He asked sarcastically. 

 She couldn't answer as she didn't had strength left in her. Kabuto took it as his cue to kick her even harder. "Seems like you don't want to!

Tears started filling her eyes, she wanted to cry so badly. Just in time, a man came in and said, "There's a call for Kageno Hikaru."

"Whose call?!"kabuto asked rudely. 

"Seitei sama" , came the reply.

"Wwhat?" Kabuto shocked.

The man nodded and told her to follow him. She somehow managed to get up and followed him to a room. Kibayama and some other workers were standing there in the most humbled manner. There she saw a screen with someone on it.

"Kageno Hikaru, isn't it?" the person on the screen, who was none other than ishido shuuji, asked seeing her enter the room. 

"Yes, I m."
